America is not headed for another Civil War, but what investors can expect is an appreciation of commodity prices in the wake of major economic changes, said E.B. Tucker, director of Metalla Royalty and author of "Why Gold, Why Now."
"We have an opportunity with gold because what we're going to see is that companies are going to run into some trouble when costs are rising, labor costs are rising...commodities are all going up," Tucker said.
